Hello, I'm Sonja, and I'm from Germany. I have been living overseas for ages. At the moment, I am living in South America, but I have also spent 7 years in Australia. I love traveling, getting to know different cultures, and trying out new things like scuba diving and snowboarding. If you can't find a suitable time slot, feel free to contact me anyway and I might be able to open up other times.

Me as a Teacher

I hold a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate and have taught English online on different platforms for over two years. In my lessons, my goal is to help you overcome the fear of speaking. While I will focus on correct pronunciation and grammar, my main priority is ensuring that you can express yourself clearly. I recently added German conversation lessons to my profile because I got some requests. Please note that I currently have no materials for German teaching.

My lessons & teaching style

Currently, I only hold casual conversation classes and I’d love to discuss any topics that interest you. My students are a constant source of inspiration for me. If you are interested in more regular lessons, please contact me and I will put you on my waiting list.
